Effect of the substrate as electron donor during the microbial sulfate reduction and its possible applications in the biological treatment of acid mine drainage

Effect of the substrate as electron donor during the microbial sulfate reduction and its possible applications in the biological treatment of acid mine drainage

<p>The uncontrolled release of acid mine drainage (AMD) characterized by elevated concentrations of dissolved metals, high levels of sulfate ions and low pH values threatens the quality of water resources nearby mining areas worldwide. The development of novel technologies based on the precipi...
